  • Is there a difference between aromas and bouquet in wines? Yes, there is. The difference is distinct, but it can be really confusing to differentiate aromas from bouquet. Even the most famed wine critics sometimes confuse these two. To be precise, when a wine specialist talks about a wine's aromas, he is referring to that wine's primary and secondary aromas (i.e. varietal aromas and vinous aromas). When he talks about a wine's bouquet, he is referring to that wine's tertiary aromas. To put it even more simply, while it is true that there are three main aromas in wines, only the primary and secondary aromas qualify as 'aromas' in wine lingo; the tertiary aroma is referred to as 'bouquet'. That, in a nutshell is the difference between aromas and bouquet.<br />
<br />
Wines owe their bouquet to the post-fermentation and the maturing process. The bouquet is developed only during the post-fermentation stage and in the wine bottle itself. Aldehydes and esters are formed during the oxidation of the fruit acids and alcohol in the wine bottle. As such, bouquet takes time – years, actually – to develop. A good, mature wine will have a complex bouquet. After all, a wine's bouquet is a combination of aromas bundled together to form new aromas (you could call it perfume, if you want).

  • A bold and vibrant macro closeup of a pink and purple Marguerite Daisy against a textured rainbow colored backdrop. A bit of a hippy vibe that screamed a bit of flower power for me.<br />
<br />
This spray flower has a classic bloom with many ray petals radiating out from a disk-shaped center. This colorful package of popping purple tinted daisies would add an alluring appeal to any wedding bouquet, table centerpiece or flower arrangement! <br />
<br />
The Marguerite daisy or also know as the Argyranthemum frutescens, is a lovely daisy featuring a large middle of the flower generally yellow but depending on the variety they can also be pinkish in color.<br />
<br />
The petals of the Marguerite are generally white, pink, or yellow. They can have single or double blooms and they are usually 1-2 inches in size. The leaves and such of Marguerite daisies are a blue-green color, thin and almost fern like.<br />
<br />
The Marguerite daisy does best in richly fertilized, well drained soil. They also like to be planted in fully sunny areas. They work really well as a boarder or on the outside edge of your year or garden adding the perfect splash of color to the area.<br />
<br />
This type of daisy is a pretty hardy plant, if you have them planted outside make sure to water them about twice a week. If the plant starts to wilt it is a sign that they need a bit more water. Keep the soil moist pretty often, but never all the time because like with most plants, their root will rot if left in constant water.

<br />
The Gerbera Daisy is the fifth most popular flower in the world, gerbera daisies can mean innocence, purity, and cheerfulness. These large daisy variations come in a number of vibrant colors, and sending them is the perfect way to brighten someone's day.<br />
<br />
The meanings of gerbera daisies stem from those attributed to the general daisy family. These meanings include innocence and purity, and daisies are also a classic symbol of beauty. However, the gerbera variety holds an added meaning of cheerfulness, which stems from the assortment of colors available. An assorted bouquet of gerbera daisies can lift the spirit and sending one is an ideal way to brighten someone's day. The sheer multitude of available varieties has helped the gerbera daisy become a favorite choice for many different occasions.<br />
<br />
The gerbera daisy was discovered in 1884 near Barberton, South Africa, by Scotsman Robert Jameson. While the flower's scientific name, Gerbera jamesonii, recollects the name of its founder, the meaning of its common name draws from German naturalist Traugott Gerber. Breeding programs that began in England in 1890 enhanced the flower's quality and color variations. The gerbera daisy's popularity soon traveled to growers in the Netherlands which, along with Columbia, is the primary distributor of the flower's cut version today. The gerbera currently ranks as the fifth most popular flower in the world behind the rose, carnations, chrysanthemum, and tulip.<br />
<br />
Gerbera L. is a genus of ornamental plants from the sunflower family. It was named in honour of the German botanist and naturalist Traugott Gerber who travelled extensively in Russia and was a friend of Carolus Linnaeus.
